Volume 5 in the Adventures of V series

It is the year 2158. V, the outcast vampire, and queen of the alien-human hybrids, disguises herself as a Cosmos Centurion, and heads into the Great Central Desert - the desolate wasteland that was once the American Heartland - to discover if any of her fellow alien-human hybrids are still alive. 

All hybrids and Synthetic Individuals - or SINs - were disappeared in the Great Culling of 2144. 

Everywhere, the elite Cosmos - rich, militarized, highly cultured - the privileged 0.000001 % - rule the world. 

The Cosmos live in Domed Cities, protected from the wild torrid climate and its superstorms, and served by robots and the lower-class Subs. 

The Subs, an inferior social cast without rights, also live in the domed cities.

Subs are used as servants, slaves, and for sexual entertainment. 

Dissidence, for a Cosmos, can lead to re-classification as a Sub, or as Non-Human, or to body and personality redesign, and permanent mental or physical erasure.

Hybrids are alien-human hybrids who are very powerful, extremely intelligent, and, potentially, immortal; they are all products of V's alien-human DNA or descended from V. 

In a Human Species Purification campaign, the elite Cosmos eliminated the alien-human hybrids, V's tribe, and the Synthetic Individuals - SINs - in the Great Culling, directed by the President-Leader, fourteen years ago.

V disguises herself as a Cosmos intelligence officer and joins a Cosmos Centurion military column into the Great Central Desert to discover if any of her fellow hybrids are alive.

When the Cosmos column is destroyed in an extraordinary ambush, V continues her quest, with one survivor, Lieutenant Kat Jackson, a beautiful black Cosmos elite warrior, an implacable foe and hunter of hybrids. 

Farther out in the Central Desert, two elite Cosmos women, 14-year-old Miranda Hughes and her mother, Niki Hughes, survivors of a plane crash, have been captured by M...
